ADMISSIONS AND FINANCIAL AID
Admissions At Daemen, our Admissions staff will help guide you through the process from start to finish. Daemen offers a rolling admissions policy. The average student enrolled has a 91 GPA and 1060 SAT. We also have a “test optional” policy which provides you with a choice regarding the submission of standardized test scores. This policy was designed for students who have demonstrated academic excellence in the classroom and who do not believe their standardized test scores accurately reflect their abilities.

4 DISTINCTIONS
ENGAGED STUDENTS
Engaged Students
The true college experience is a journey of self-discovery. At Fordham, every student has the opportunity to discover his or her true self, through academics, service, activities (clubs, organizations, etc.), spiritual reflection and athletics.
Within Fordham, Within Yourself
With its two distinctive residential campuses—green and gothic Rose Hill, on 85 acres adjacent to the New York Botanical Garden and the Bronx Zoo; and cosmopolitan Lincoln Center, in the heart of Manhattan, across from the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts—Fordham offers students virtually unlimited possibilities for learning and personal growth. Students often say, “New York is my campus. Fordham is my school.”
Fordham draws students from across the country and around the world, who want to live and learn in the global capital of commerce and culture. The University offers one of the most extensive internship programs in the country. Students choose from more than 2,600 internship options in business, communications, education, government, health care, biomedical research, law, the arts, and other fields. The Office of Career Services also offers workshops, career days, one-on-one career counseling, and on-campus interviews with major corporations. Students compete for and earn prestigious fellowships and scholarships—including Fulbright, Truman and Mellon scholarships, and other competitive awards. And each year, more than 4,000 students engage in community service, both locally and in distant corners of the world, through the University’s award-winning global outreach program.
GREAT TEACHING
At Fordham, faculty members are scholars who challenge students to reach beyond and mentors who lend their support and expertise. The Fordham faculty and curriculum educate the whole person.
Cura Personalis
Fordham invites students to enjoy a wealth of resources and experiences, and dedicated professors who challenge students to excel within a supportive community.
Fordham has a proud history of approaching education in a distinctly Jesuit way, one that emphasizes cura personalis, a commitment to nurturing the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—and challenging students to surpass their perceived limitations. This kind of education unites both heart and mind, and at Fordham, this occurs within and beyond the classroom.
